It seemed like an eternity to get this book in my hands. Kim Harrison is one of my favorite authors as she combines the lives and stories of witches, demons, fairys, elves, gargoyles and vampires. The story of Rachel Morgan has come a long way and she is the main focus in this story. Rosewood babies are being stolen, the ever after is shrinking and of course Rachel is the one being framed.

Our usual cohorts, Ivy and Jenks are little involved this time. There is a lot of demon and elf involvement in this book. There was also a point that left me in shock and tears, my heart crushed as I read the loss.

In this story some of the characters we get to see are: the cute elf babies Ray and Lucy; we find out how bad a mofo Ku’Sox really is; more of the elves Quen, Trenton, Ellasbeth Withon and Ceri; more demons Al, Newt, Dali; of course the pixies and fairy: Jax, Jenks, Belle; the human, Nick; the vampires: Ivy, Ryan Cormel, Felix, and Nina; and Bis the gargoyle.

My only real disappointment was the devastating loss in the book, and the lack of details surrounding it. Other wise, this book enthralling, I seriously couldn’t put it down. As usual I can’t wait for the next installment.
